    By the time Dany was born, there was no one left alive who knew how to make a dragon saddle. But I think even if they could figure it out, she probably felt she didn’t need one.

      She might have not even known they were saddled, also. She always admitted that her knowledge of her family history was lacking, and the little she did know she learned from her brother Viserys who just bullshitted most of the time.

    You're spot on in your assessment of Daemon. He is a very complex, very "grey" character. George R.R. Martin has said that he both one of the most loved and most hated men in Westeros. A great character and Matt Smith does a fabulous portrayal of the many facets of him.

    In the books, the Baratheons were one of the strongest supporters for Rhaenys' claim to the throne at the Great Council due to her mother being a Baratheon. As a matter of fact, in the books Rhaenys has black hair due to Baratheon genes being the equivalent of a genetic stampede (the Seed is Strong anyone?). I kind of wish they kept it like that here, or at least have her have streaks of Black in the Silver, but I understand the need to make it clear she's a Targaryen visually.

    Yes! Aemma Arryn is Viserys's cousin, Aemma's mother was Daella Targaryen who married Rodrick Arryn, Daella was one of the daughters of Jaehaerys and Alyssane, Viserys and Daemon's parents were Baelon and Alyssa were brothers and children of Jaehaerys and Alyssane.

    • @janeathome6643

      Rhaenyra is 3/4 Targ because of her Arryn blood. Rhaenys is 1/2 Targ, 1/2 Baratheon, although the Baratheons are descended from Aegon's rumored bastard brother, so maybe that bumps her up to 2/3? Targ blood is the only dragon-riding blood left which is the reason for all the incest.

    Interestingly enough, in the book, the succession came down to Viserys and Rhaenys’s son. Direct quote from the book: “In the eyes of many, the Great Council of 101 AC thereby established an iron precedent on matters of succession: regardless of seniority, the Iron Throne of Westeros could not pass to a woman, nor through a woman to her male descendants.”
    It’s a subtle change making it between Viserys and Rhaenys herself but still noteworthy.

    • @janeathome6643
      @janeathome6643 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Also, technically, the title of Crown Prince had passed to Baelon when his brother died, and thence down to his eldest son, and if Jahaerys tried to retcon the succession by retro-disinheriting his son and grandson, the powder keg would have blown up in his face bc the succession of any house would be completely shredded.

    The dark and handsome unknown common born Criston Cole, cutting a very Jon Snow-esque figure, unseats the Prince himself, then audaciously walks up to the princess to ask for her wreath, which she gladly indulges him, her best friend giggling beside her. Such an insignificant thing in the middle of all this tragic and impactful events : the king's wife and the heir's death, a new heir, a rogue prince. And yet...here it all begins.

George Martin said she’d die without one. And show should have included it. She has not become full-on rider in the books yet. She’ll have a saddle. That’s why this was so cool.

    I don't think it's stupid to want more of and to enjoy what we have of characters speaking Valyrian. It works especially well when they speak it with a more natural intonation, instead of forced intonation (like how _so_ many characters in other franchises speak Latin, ugh!). Language and culture are two-sides of the same coin of human experience. So, it enriches the immersion and expands our own psychological horizons.

    In which, the benevolent king Viserys choses to torture his dying wife in cold blood like a guinea pig, instead of getting over the obsessiom of having a male heir and letting her pass naturally and less painfully. Viserys, like a true nobleman of his time, cared more to save his precious heir instead of his living, breathing wife. When Daemon was saying in the Vale men like sheep bc they’re prettier and Viserys own wife was from the Vale… Viserys was just letting this man say anything fr.

    A lot of us missed this too, Viserys had to choose between saving the baby or letting it and the mother die as they were. Aemma was going to die no matter what. I think his grief is so heavy because of how she died.. he didn’t even explain to her. Glad you’re doing this show too!!

    Honestly I liked this better than game of thrones because the two uncle and niece thing, they really actually loved eachother and that’s the best you can ask for when you have to marry blood. And Alice’s Dad is the knew/old little finger and he is disgusting. Also he is super hot, the same actor who played a doctor who!!! The hair and the attitude just makes him so gorgeous but yeah the scenes leading up to them being in love are heckins disgusting.

    “The idea that we control the dragons is an illusion” this brings a lot more depth into the entire GoT universe. And between the bonding between a dragon and a rider.
    It is said if you get cut by the throne you are unworthy… I would say naming Rhaenyra heir was the one decision that Viserys shouldn’t have done, even as kind of a king as he is- he didn’t consider the realm at all

    • @Marcus_1001
      @Marcus_1001 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think the real problem is that Viserys never bother to change the law. He essentially said "Yes, this is the law but I want my daughter to be Queen so we are going to ignore that law just this one time." Did he *really* think that just his proclamation would be sufficient?? As a man Viserys was kind and honorable, but as a king he was short-sighted, indecisive, and...well..weak.

    • @Marcus_1001
      @Marcus_1001 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I forgot to say that Viserys was also very wise in many ways. The quote about controlling the dragons being an illusion is a perfect example. He understood what most did not - these are DRAGONS! They CHOOSE to follow the commands of men but at the end of the day they are DRAGONS and they will do whatever the hell they want. As Jorah told Daenerys in GoT season 3 or 4: "They are dragons, Khaleesi. They can never be tamed, not even by their mother."

    Tbh most westerosi nobles do not really fear or frown upon the idea of women ruling, more that women inherit on the same basis as men. They are still very sexist of course, so a female ruler would have to be on their best behavior much more than any male ruler would have to avoid rumors and infamy.
    But yhea Rhaenys had significant support, with the Velaryons and the Baratheons among some of them, Rhaenys is half Baratheon on her mothers side.

    They didn’t know where to cut the mother to not cut the baby, the often killed both or just didn’t know what was going on but acted like they did. they’d cut way to high and blame the woman for not being able to properly birth a baby so her family would lose a daughter, grandchild and their other daughters wouldn’t be able to be married off to easy.

    The Alicent-Rhaenyra "lost friendship" aspect IS the central driving force of Hotd. It's what provides the show with its emotion, angst & tragedy. Anyone who do not understand this is because they are a petulant Targ Cultist for whom scoring Sports Team dunks is more important than the beauty of the story. They get mad that hotd dares to have substance and nuance instead of being their self-inserf silver queen warlord cosplay/targsryen apology show. How dare the antagonists are themselves victims and made of sympathetic flesh and blood instead of being one dimensional cartoonish mustache twirling doormat villains with no characterization, arc of screentime. The average targ cultist wanted a snow white girlboss warlord vs 65 year old evil stepmom Disney movie. Hotd gave them a greej tragedy like sophocles instead. Well, I guess it's tough luck for them.

Honestly I had my reservations about this series, but my concerns quickly subsided. This was masterfully done with a great story, production, and a master class of actors giving awesome performances. I think you're really going to enjoy the rest of the season and I'm totally here for it. 🖤👍🤍
